Wind Energy – Third System for TenneT
Seatrium announced that it has received notification from TenneT TSO that it plans to commence work on the third 2-gigawatt (GW) High Voltage Direct Current (HVDC) electrical transmission system on 1 June 2024.
This is in line with an earlier announcement made on 30 March 2023 in relation to the Group’s success in securing a five-year Framework Cooperation Agreement, together with its consortium partner GE Vernova with TenneT, to supply three HVDC electrical transmission systems for offshore wind farm projects in the Netherlands, each valued at approximately EUR 2 billion, with a total combined capacity of 6GW as part of TenneT’s offshore grid acceleration programme.
Seatrium’s scope of work will include the engineering, procurement, construction, transportation, installation, and commissioning of the 2GW HVDC Offshore Converter Platform for TenneT, which is the biggest and most powerful of its kind in the industry.
The contract award of NWBE is expected to be on 1 June 2024, after the completion of certain deliverables by both Seatrium and GE Vernova in the coming months.
